I believe that developing the learning capability of the student is the best thing a tutor can do because a tutor is only going to be there for a short run however their learning ability is going to assist and stick with them forever. I always make the students aware of what kind of questions can be asked while allowing them to take their time and…

The most important thing a tutor can do is give a student confidence in a subject they once hated or were afraid of and using that confidence to help them learn. Then once they want to learn more about the subject they may even love it as they are able to understand it. I am very patient, friendly and approachable. I have been tutored in the past…

Inspire students to understand the importance and broader concepts within mathematics. Also translate the mathematics to a way a student can understand - perhaps look at it more graphically, or by using a real world example - and by breaking down a complex problem into simple, easy to understand parts.

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is prepare them for the unexpected. While it's important that the student can understand and solve general problems they may be presented with, the only way to achieve an A grade is to go above and beyond what is expected of them. This can only be achieved if the student is…

For me the most important thing a tutor can do is to guide the student in such a way that at the end of it, the student is able to lead by himself in the direction he was originally intended to go. It is similar to the lines of giving a man a fish to teaching him to fish. The tutor has to ignite the spark of interest in the student so that the…

Inside MarlestonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Zara focused on comparing fractions using visual aids like pie diagrams and also practised solving Roman numerals.

Year 9 student Archie prepared for an upcoming test by tackling algebraic multiplication and worded questions from both his booklet and extra resources.

Meanwhile, Lachlan in Year 10 completed Pythagorean theorem exercises before beginning trigonometry with the sine rule, applying these skills to right-angled triangles as well as related problems from his electrician workbook.

Recent Challenges

Messy written work and disorganized materials slowed progress for a Year 7 student; as one tutor noted, "sheets and books were quite messy/disorganized—fixing this may help her keep track of instructions and tasks."

In Year 10 Maths, not reading assignment instructions closely led to confusion with scaling diagrams, causing errors in the final drawing.

A senior student in Year 11 struggled to extract key information from worded problems, leading to repeated misunderstandings of what questions required.

In each case, missed or unclear process steps meant time was spent clarifying instructions rather than advancing on new concepts.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Marleston recently noticed some real breakthroughs across different students.

In Year 10, Tia has started catching her own mistakes during trigonometry practice—she now pauses to check her work and corrects errors independently, which she hadn't done before.

During a session with Archie (Year 8), he not only tackled basic algebra confidently but also transferred those skills to new types of problems without hesitation, showing far more initiative than in earlier lessons.

Meanwhile, younger student Natalia created her first worded maths problem on her own, having previously needed step-by-step prompts for similar tasks.

Local Spots for Tutoring

If you'd prefer not to have lessons at home, tutoring can also take place at a local library—such as Hilton Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Richmond Primary School.
